I have one question before I actually get to our review. Why isn’t Chef David Rodriguez on the Food Network???? Our first time at the Mojito Bar and it certainly won’t be our last. We went via an outstanding recommendation from a friend of ours and it certainly did not disappoint. We’ve had plenty of Latin cuisine but none made with such care,love, talent and creativity as what we had yesterday. Drink wise we started with the mango and passion fruit lemonades. Super refreshing and tasty. Perfect to start the meal with and quench our thirsts. We started with their tostones and guacamole: Now you might be thinking that this is some standard run of the mill tostones and guac but you’d be wrong in thinking that. Chef Rodriguez’s take on this dish means even piece of tostones is individually freshly made in house and the guacamole has a secret weapon in smoked pineapple. This is the best guacamole we’ve ever had. Smokey, fresh, vibrant, spicy, and a host of other phenomenal flavors. Next,we had the braised short rib tacos and these might be the best tacos we’ve ever had. Perfectly cooked beef, salsa verde, pickled onions, crisp pico de gallo to top off. It’s Heaven in your mouth with every single bite. We then had the Cuban sandwich on a stick which is everything you love about Cuban sandwiches wrapped in crispy wonton shell. We also had the mini arepas which were small bites of cheesy crispy goodness. Lastly, we had the Lime In the Coconut dessert. This is the ultimate refreshing dessert:fresh made coconut ice cream on one side and on the other side coconut panna cotta. In the middle, fresh blackberries, lychees and pineapples. Mojito Bar gets a perfect score from us. In the next weeks we’ll be back with a video review for our food YouTube channel. This is one restaurant that you have to go to if you’re at Sawgrass. Chef Rodriguez is redefining Latin cuisine one scrumptious bite at a time!

This place has a wonderful atmosphere and live music when we arrived. Zaviera G. Our waitress was fantastic and polite and attentive and knew the menu well. She made a few great suggestions and we enjoyed our drinks. I asked for the Miami Vice and she asked bartender if he would make it as it was not on the menu and Zaviera G. made it happen. Thanks again. Would highly recommend this location. Great service.
